On the ground

Pitching a stretch tent in the valley towns.

Valley venues can have tight plots, slopes and narrow access. Send the usable dimensions and photos of the garden or yard, including the route in, so we can check where the tent and anchors could go.

Batley is inside an hour of the yard, so we build the day before and take it down the morning after with no overnight for the crew. Late changes to the layout are usually still workable.

Run by Max and Ruby from a base near York, 300+ events since 2020. Send a photo of the spot and a postcode and we will tell you what will fit and how we would rig it.

Where our stretch tents go around Batley:

  • Mill and warehouse venues with yards
  • Walled town gardens
  • Hillside farm venues
  • Parks and sports grounds

Marquee hire in Batley?

We hire stretch tents. Same job, different shape.

A marquee is a rigid aluminium frame with vertical walls and a fixed rectangular footprint. It wants level ground, or a subfloor to make the ground level, and the site has to suit the rectangle.

A stretch tent is tensioned canvas held on aluminium poles and steel ground anchors, with no rigid frame. Its open sides and curved roof can suit gardens, courtyards and field sites. We check the space, ground and exposure before agreeing a layout, and follow the manufacturer’s setup and weather limits.

Prices start at £995 inc VAT fully set up, and a Medium at £1,750 covers 120 seated. If a framed marquee really is the right answer for your event, we will say so.

Flooring & lighting

£350

Dandy Dura matting plus festoon lights inside and around the perimeter, as one bundle. Flooring options depend on the ground at your venue.

Patio heaters

£100 each

Tall gas heaters for the open sides. Two covers a Medium comfortably on a spring or autumn evening.

Heat lamps

Festoon lighting needs around 1kW per tent, so you will want a generator or a venue hookup. We will talk that through before the day.

Somewhere for guests to sleep

Add bell tents in Batley.

A stretch tent gives you the gathering space. Bell tents give everyone somewhere to sleep on site, so nobody is booking taxis at midnight. From £159 per tent, which buys the tent pitched and taken down again. Beds, bedding and towels are priced separately on top, and guests can book and pay for their own tent through a free booking page.

FAQs

Common questions

How much is stretch tent hire in Batley?

£995 for the Small (7m × 10.5m), £1,750 for the Medium (10.5m × 15m) and £3,500 for the Large (15m × 21m), all inc VAT with setup and takedown included. Delivery to Batley is 1 hr · £150 from our York base.

Do you actually cover Batley?

Yes. Batley is about an hour from our base near York. Delivery: 1 hr · £150. Distance only changes the delivery cost.

How many people fit under one?

Small takes 70 standing or 50 seated. Medium takes 150 standing or 120 seated. Large takes 300 standing, 240 seated, or 180 with a dance floor in. If you are between two sizes, tell us the running order and we will say which one works.

Stretch tent, marquee or tipi, which is right?

A marquee is a rigid aluminium frame with vertical walls and a fixed rectangle footprint. A tipi is a pole-and-canvas cone with a distinctive peak and a fixed circular footprint. A stretch tent is tensioned canvas on aluminium poles and ground anchors, with no rigid frame, so it takes the shape of your site. We hire stretch tents. If a framed marquee or a tipi is genuinely the right call for your event, we will tell you.

Will it cope with the weather in Batley?

Wind exposure can vary across a valley, so we assess the actual pitch and forecast. The setup must meet the manufacturer’s requirements for both the ground and the weather.

Do you provide furniture, tables and chairs?

Trestle tables and bench seating come from us, sets that seat 8 to 10, delivered and set up with the tent, along with the flooring, lighting and heating. For chairs, lounge furniture and styling we will put you on to suppliers we have worked alongside and would use ourselves.

Can we have bell tents for guests as well?

Yes, and the two go together well: a stretch tent for the gathering, bell tents for the people staying over. Beds and bedding are add-ons, never inside the tent price. Guests can book and pay for their own tent through a free booking page, so you are not chasing money.

How far in advance should we book?

Summer Saturdays go early. For a wedding or a festival, 6 to 18 months out is normal. Smaller events are usually fine at 1 to 3 months.
